They and we boomers had nothing. Boomers learned from their parents of the greatest generation, dedication, loyalty and commitment. We learned how to go to work. To apply yourself, volunteer for extra assignments and not complain.
When there were no extra assignments we found side gigs. Our parents taught us about hard work, but also compound interest. We are benefitting now from their sacrifices and our own sacrifices. y offspring will benefit from my parents hard work and management, and mine.
Circle of life, and whatnot...

Or nobody until the price goes down.
But I’m guessing another rich person.

You need to pull yourself up by the bootstraps and stop drinking lattes.
Also - anybody hear that loud boom on the East Side earlier? Sounded like an explosion.
Woke me up and trying to rest for HOA meeting.

I plan on buying one with my SS checks. I want to personally thank the younger generations for their support!

The Boomers started the trend of sending kids to private schools in the 80's.

Then I guess you will not be able to prove your hypothesis unless you suggest you are the last one alive.

For sure. We wanted our kids to have a quality education. And because we created wealth from the lessons we learned from our greatest generation parents we wanted to provide the best for our children. And now us boomers have passed down these values to our grandchildren.

one generation rolled up their sleeves, worked hard & saved hard and another generation holds their hand out, cries and gets everything handed to them. Not naming names. Can you solve the puzzle ?
